Chapter 102 Applying for President
On a sunny afternoon, Giovanni put on a suit popular with Wesson and came to the castle to visit Baron Wesson.
What he didn't expect was to see an old acquaintance in the living room.
The moment their eyes met, Frederick felt a strong sense of hostility.
Frederick got straight to the point and asked Giovanni with a smile: "Your Excellency, are you willing to serve as president of the Wesson Family Bank?"
Giovanni immediately replied: "After studying the Wesson Territory, I think it is a land with great potential, and I am very willing to serve the Baron."
The smile on Frederick's face became even brighter. , pointing to another guest in the living room and said: "This is Deloitte from the Kingdom of England. I just hired him to be the head of the Wesson family's accounting firm, responsible for all the properties under the Wesson family's name. They also provide services to other chambers of commerce.”
There are many people who want to invest in the Wesson family, and many people are waiting for the opportunity. Giovanni thinks he is fast enough, but he did not expect anyone to compete with him. He was a long time ahead, and he was still an old enemy.
Deloit is also an experienced financial person, but he does not have the backing of the Averardo family, and he came here to try his luck after being kicked out of Londinium for offending others, so Frederick Lie did not give him the position of bank president, but asked him to set up an accounting firm.
Now Frederick has a lot of business, and there will be more in the future. Economic problems are certain, so it is necessary to establish an accounting firm.
Frederick also planned to see how Deloitte was doing. If he did well, he would not be unable to get business from government departments in the future.
When Giovanni first saw Deloitte, he was a little worried that there would be some twists and turns in the position of the bank president. After hearing that he was in charge of the accounting firm, he was secretly relieved and told Wei Wei Baron Mori took a high look, thinking that there must be an expert behind him.
When the Averardo family does business, they will always encounter an unavoidable problem - why does the boss trust you, an outsider, to put so much money in your hands?
Giovanni had been thinking about how to gain the trust of the young Baron Wesson, and whether he should send his cute little granddaughter to him to warm his bed.
Well now, Baron Wesson made it clear from the beginning that he did not completely believe in himself and used other outsiders to review himself.
It is easy to hide from overt targets, but difficult to guard against hidden arrows. This kind of restriction on the surface makes people feel at ease and worry-free. It can save a lot of hidden transactions and focus on work.
As long as the rules are set and everyone acts according to the rules, everyone will have peace of mind and there is no need to send the little granddaughter away.
Frederick was very happy that Giovanni agreed to serve as president, but he still had to ask some questions clearly: "You two seem to have known each other before? How is your relationship?"
Droit immediately replied: "Boss, the biggest competitor I just mentioned when I was in Londinium City was the bank where this person worked."
He already understood the current situation. If you are desperate, if you can't become a bank president, then you can become the boss's dog.
Giovanni then replied: "When I was working in the city of Londinium many years ago, I spent half the time thinking about how to kill this man."
He was very fond of the enemy Deloitte. After understanding it, I thought that if Baron Wesson wanted to find an enemy for himself, it would be better to find someone he was familiar with.
Droit stared and said: "Thank you for your concern for me. Now you can laugh. My bank has gone bankrupt and my whole family is homeless."
"But I still don't know who will laugh in the end."
Giovanni smiled and replied: "Now I only care about whether Baron Wesson laughs or not. For me, it doesn't matter whether the others laugh or cry. It doesn’t matter.”
His victor's margin made Deloit clench his fists.
Droit said coldly: "I don't mind that Baron Wesson's smile comes from your crying."
Frederick drank the tea slowly, everyone was Thousand-year-old fox, what are you doing with me?
He didn't bother to say anything. After all, these two people were expressing their attitude in front of him. If he revealed it, everyone would be embarrassed.
After a while, Frederick gave Deloitte a wink. The latter understood and immediately stood up to leave, leaving the living room to the boss and Giovanni to talk about the bank.
Frederick put down the tea cup and asked Giovanni seriously: "I picked up a lot of money not long ago. How do you think the money should be spent?"
Giovanni's newspapers for so many days are not in vain. As I watched, I got a lot of information at the same time, and I was prepared in my heart.
"I think the money should be used for lending." He was already prepared to answer this question. "Now the business in Weisenling is very prosperous. There are many best-selling specialties that are not found in other places. Many businessmen need To purchase more goods, you can provide them with loans. ”
Lending loans to merchants is a very common practice for banks, and he is familiar with it.
Unexpectedly, Frederick said: "In my opinion, the position of bank president is very important, and the president must be consistent with the thinking of the largest shareholder."
"I'm going to leave the territory for a few days tomorrow. You can go find All Might during these days and ask him to take you around Wesson. We'll talk when I come back." After that, he stood up and left. living room.
Giovanni's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood that he had messed up, and it was serious.
He quickly grasped the key point, which was that his own ideas were deviated from those of Baron Wesson, and they had different opinions on the direction of the use of this large amount of money.
But that doesn’t matter, just find out what Baron Wesson thinks.
A few days later, Giovanni met Frederick near the tomato fields of an estate.
At this time, Frederick and Maria were wearing the clothes of a farmer and a peasant woman, with a headscarf on their heads, and they were picking tomatoes with a small basket.
Maria was very curious about the red fruits. She looked at each one for a long time before carefully picking it and placing it gently in the basket.
When the small basket was full, she carried the basket and carried the tomatoes to her mother under the awning not far away, and then silently went to pick another basket.
She looked a little tired after running a few times, and her little face was flushed.
Frederick picked up a tomato and compared it with her face, and said with a smile: "Now your face is as red as it."
Maria was about to say something, but as soon as her lips opened, she He closed it tightly and finally just let out a "hum".
Frederick suppressed a smile. The little girl was losing her teeth and didn’t like to speak.
“Take a rest when you are tired.” He took out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and wiped a little sweat on Maria’s forehead.
Maria raised her hand and covered her mouth with her hand and said, "Pick one more basket and then rest."
Frederick asked her to go ahead and let Tarot watch from the side while he went to talk to Giovanni.
“What do you think these days?” Frederick asked Giovanni, “Do you understand what I mean?”
Giovanni and Ogilvy visited these days A round of Wesson's emerging industries, in-depth discussions with BASF, Schmidt and others, and Duval even gave me a thermos cup.
After knowing that he was applying for the position of bank president, Duval immediately complained: "Mr. Abelardo, look, there are so many people outside waiting for me to produce cups, but we only have so many people. Factory, we can’t keep up with the orders even if we don’t eat or drink. The orders are already scheduled until winter.”
“A businessman had something to do at home the day before yesterday and couldn’t wait any longer. He wanted to sell his delivery order for next month. Okay. Guys, there’s a fight between people who want to buy the bill of lading.”
"But expanding production requires money. Now I am helpless and can only rely on borrowing money from the principal."
Giovanni understood what Frederick meant at that time and now replied : "I understand what the Baron means. It is better to lend money to people who buy eggs than to let more chickens lay eggs."
Frederick nodded, and then said: "You put the money into the bank." The plan is ready for me to see.”
Giovanni breathed a sigh of relief, this hurdle was finally passed.
He immediately said: "I will submit the plan tomorrow!"
Frederick thought of a question and asked: "How long will it take for the bank to open?"
Giovanni replied: "It will only take ten days at the earliest."
"So soon?" Frederick was a little surprised, he thought it would take at least half a year, at least the venue would have to take time to resolve.
Giovanni replied: "I have already chosen a place. It is next to the intersection below the castle. It is your property and can be used directly."
"Don't worry about the treasury. I and I Professor Omet has agreed that when the time comes, he will build a strong safe for the bank to store a small amount of currency, and store the larger amount directly in the castle.”
Frederick's mouth twitched, that building was a hotel for guests, but he still nodded.
"Let's go there first." He said, "When it gets bigger, I will build a building specifically for the bank."
Then he used magic elements to draw a Moji in the air in front of him. Bius Ring, said: "This is the symbol of the bank."
